Brett,

You can get the blank lines you want by using the [svprg] code. Here's the explanation of that code as taken from the DBT Codes Quick Reference Guide:

[svprgN:L:M] -- Set paragraph treatment values, i.e. the parameters for the [p] command. N determines the position at which to begin a new paragraph; the default value is 3 for braille and 0 for print. L determines how many lines to skip before a paragraph; the default is 0 for braille and 1 for print. M is 0 (the default) if N is to be an absolute position, or is 1 if N is to be relative to the current left margin (i.e. the left margin reckoned as position 1). If all values are omitted, the values are reset to their values at the beginning of the file.

Of course, I assume that the items use paragraphing. Alternatively, you could modify the paragraph style to force a blank line for you, or create a style of your own based on the Paragraph style.

Steve
